Echographic diagnosis of lesions of the abdominal, aorta and lymph nodes

Radiologic Clinics of North America

Abstract

The development of echographic diagnostic procedures for abdominal aortic aneurysms and enlarged abdominal lymph nodes has been discussed. The echographic method is suitable in several ways for the initial diagnosis, determination of extent, differential diagnosis, as well as follow-up of these abdominal lesions. The criteria for diagnosis and differential diagnosis have been presented and the advantages of the method and its limitations reviewed.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.
